Vitiges Retreats from Rome to Ravenna

Vitiges, king of the Ostrogoths, retreated from the siege of Rome, leaving the city under the control of the Byzantine general Belisarius. Despite the Ostrogoths' prolonged efforts, the strategic leadership of Belisarius and the resilience of the Roman defenses led to the decision to abandon the siege. This turning point marked a significant moment in the ongoing conflict between the Byzantine Empire and the Ostrogoths.
